Balloon Molly
[Poecilia latipinna hybrid]
Gus
Part of the original 5 fish, I got him cause he looked funny. I later regretted this choice because of my feelings toward the disfiguration by selective breeding that can occur. I hadn't originally realized that this fish was not in any natural form.
After 3 months he got unwell, exhibited dropsy, and unfortunately died.
Gus before he died. Pine-coning associated with dropsy. |
